Summary

The game started with all four players focusing on establishing their board presence and ramping up their mana. Cameron, playing Kogla, the Titan Ape, was off to a quick start with an early Kogla play, but faced resistance during his attempts to maintain board superiority. Justin, playing Gyruda, Doom of Depths, was a significant disruptor throughout the game, using control spells to keep threatening creatures at bay. Ethan, running Vadrok, Apex of Thunder, had a slower start but managed to maintain a significant hand size and was able to respond to threats as needed. Chandler, piloting Zilortha, Strength Incarnate, focused on ramping and card draw, in true Gruul fashion. As the game evolved, the players started to make powerful plays, with Cameron's Kogla and Tireless Tracker combo alongside Kodama gaining momentum. However, the game was cut short and the winner was not determined in the available transcript.
